At dinner tonight we were trying to keep R entertained while we finished up eating, and J sang to her "Where is Thumbkin?" which goes essentially like this:
Where is Thumbkin? Where is Thumbkin?
Here I am! Here I am!
How are you today, sir? Very well, I thank you.
Run away. Run away.
After he finished that song, she started singing, "Where is Jacques? Where is Jacques?" and I was like, where did that come from? J explained that both "Where is Thumbkin?" and "Frere Jacques" have the same tune.
I am so impressed!

That is amazing at 2 years old! Most adults wouldn't even make that connection! R is definitely musically inclined. I would say gifted!
